Isolation of genes essential for molecular breeding of drought tolerant plants
Description
[Synopsis]
Plant genes for transcription factors were isolated that control expression of genes involved in drought tolerance. Regulatory elements in promoters were also identified that control drought-responsive gene expression. These transcription factors and promoters are expected to be useful for molecular breeding of drought-tolerant plants by regulating the number of genes involved in drought tolerance.
